I'm totally in love with this game. (Since it's fifteen years old, having sex with it would even be legal for me in Germany! I digress.)
I'm as happy as one can be with this shining star of win and awesome when he has just discovered it about one and a half weeks ago, but is there anyone among you who can help me with the crashes? I'm playing the Collector's edition, and apart from a couple of annoying issues (I can't play it on my laptop if I don't uninstall my graphics drivers, and it runs a bit too fast, but not fast enough to make it unplayable) I'd really like for it to crash less often.
Of course, I'd also like to know who else has ever played it.
For those not in the know, this an excellent writeup of the game I'll link to in lieu of my incoherent babbling: http://www.shamusyoung.com/twentysidedtale/?p=1386
(EDIT: Apparently, you can even still download the game from him instead of going through The Underdogs! How cool is that?)
In short, it is a science fiction game about kicking aliens in their filthy earth-invading butts, with a battle system similar to Final Fantasy Tactics, only that it has about 1000 times better atmosphere and 100 times less boring. (Can't comment on the depth because I didn't even make it past the first battle in Final Fantasy Tactics due to its aforementioned lackings.)
